HIV Question

Approximately a month ago, I slept with a 22 yr old caucasian female unprotected whom I didnt know that well. I've been speaking with her ever since and basically grilled her twice on std's in which she assured me I have nothing to worry about.

I went and got tested last week (approximately three weeks past this exposure). It was negative. Dr. HHH and Dr. Hook both said my risk is very, very low considering the exposure and the naegative result. I know my test isnt conclusive but I was just wondering what the likelihood is of my status changing. I've never had a fever, sore throat, or a rash (I dont think). I have had some muscle aches and twitching which i guess is a symptom of anxiety?

Any help/advice would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you!!

What do think HIV is a guessing game? You will get your conclusive status result at your 3 month test.

What is the liklihood that my status is going to change? Dr HHH said approxaimtely 80% of people have positive tests at the timeframe in which i tested.

Would i be feeling muscle/join aches without fever, sore throat etc...

Anyone..please help!!

Thank you!

True, your risk is very low, but not non existent, therefore you should wait for 3 months mark for a conclusive test that would lay all your worries to rest permanently.
